The left is convinced that they finally have their smoking gun.
"Two weeks after Donald J. Trump clinched the Republican presidential nomination last year, his eldest son arranged a meeting at Trump Tower in Manhattan with a Russian lawyer who has connections to the Kremlin, according to confidential government records described to The New York Times.
"The previously unreported meeting was also attended by Mr. Trump’s campaign chairman at the time, Paul J. Manafort, as well as the president’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, according to interviews and the documents, which were outlined by people familiar with them."
According to the New York Times, this is the first confirmed private meeting between members of Trump's inner circle and the Russians. And, of course, the truly big news is that both his son Donald Trump Jr. and his son-in-law Jared Kushner were involved.
Oh, my. Lock them up! Lock them up!
Well, wait. Not so fast:
"Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of US President Donald Trump, along with Paul Manafort, Trump's presidential campaign manager, and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law, met with a Russian lawyer to discuss the suspended program of adoption of children from Russia by US citizens during 2016 election campaign, local media reported Saturday."
It was a set-up by gps fusion. It was a part of the conspiracy to bring down the elected president.
Worse!
Trump put Russian dressing on two scoops of icecream!!!!
Another nothing burger. I hear that the Trump team says that the meeting was actually set up by the company that generated the fake Trump dossier and that they therefore suspect it was a DNC setup.
From the Circa link:
We have learned from both our own investigation and public reports that the participants in the meeting misrepresented who they were and who they worked for,” said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for President Trump’s legal team. “Specifically, we have learned that the person who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS, a firm which according to public reports, was retained by Democratic operatives to develop opposition research on the President and which commissioned the phony Steele dossier.
Yep. A set up by Fusion GPS.
The pathetic FAKE NEWS media are so desperate that they are willing to grasp on to anything to say this some how validates their fake narrative. Again this has nothing to do with election day votes being hacked by the Russians.
Their fake polls were so off. The media knew their name was dirt. So they came up with this fake Russian collusion story to save their reputation and get the DNC back into offie. The truth is it was the DNC that tried to steal the election, but still lost. Yes Hillary that was hated.
If the media is dumb enough to continue on with the fake Russian narrative, they are only going to hate their selves.
PS: There is nothing illegal about meeting with a Russian.
Not Just a Russian....
A LAWYER!
“Oh look over here at this shiny bobble”...trying to get your attention off of Poland and the GS20 Summit where Our President hit it out of the park!!!
The only way you can tell how good Our President did is by reading other countries newspapers...you know our rotten media won’t say anything positive...
OMG!!!!!!!
Trump used Russian dressing during the election!??????????
Throw Trump in Guantanamo right away and let’s all ask Obama if he will graciously consent to head a caretaker government until we can all rush out and elect HIlLIARy!!!!!!!!!! She is so very very wonderful and she DESERVES the position, right!????
/s
(these leftists are objecting to ANYONE speaking with Anybody from the (ex?-) USSR? it wasn’t so long ago that the D’s were in LOVE with Russia! Teddy Kennedy asked the Russians to help get rid of Ronald Reagan in 1984, they were so close.
Have you noticed, the Trump hat I have and the Russian flag are both red? Must be collusion with Russia!
This lawyer was denied a visa, and also denied a visa for her kids. She was later granted parole entry status to allegedly work on a case she was representing here. I’m assuming that parole status was granted by someone in Hillary’s State Dept. Fusion GPS, the same company behind the dossier is mixed up in this somehow.
Why is Drudge hyping this stuff at the top in RED? Is he starting to tout the dark side? Starting to look like it.
>Why is Drudge hyping this stuff at the top in RED? Is he starting to tout the dark side? Starting to look like it.
It’s the start of this week’s major attack on Trump. Though someone screwed up the timing or released early. Drudge is just reporting what’s about to be huge news.
Another nothing burger.
Nope. This one is big. Nuclear. Fusion GPS playing footsie with an FSB linked Russian lawyer here. Totally discredits the “Steele Dossier”
Fusion GPS, the same company behind the dossier is mixed up in this somehow.
Fusion GPS was working on behalf of somebody close to Putin to get the Magnitsky Act removed. This Russian lawyer worked for that guy.
A whole bunch of Democrats are about take the 5th on The Hill. Guaranteed.
oh my! and I’ve actually heard that Mr. Trunp’s hotel bar might actually offer Vodka on the menu, too????????????!?????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
